| Subject: | Re: Ocamldebug for non-UNIX |
> Is some work being done on a debugger for the Mac/Windows OCaml versions ? None that I know of. The debugger from the Unix version relies heavily on two Unix-specific features: Unix-domain sockets and the fork() system call (used as a cheap and surprisingly efficient checkpointing mechanism for the replay facility). Under Windows at least, a replacement for Unix-domain sockets could be found, but I wasn't able to find an adequate checkpointing mechanism. - Xavier Leroy
